At Hammond, Indiana. Apparently the Indiana Harbor Belt roundhouse is still in use also.

EMD calf SW unit, probably IHB, rusting away on the Indiana Harbor Belt. Rare unit.

How many more do you want? I have it's 2 sisters here in Ohio. would love to sell them! That one was to bad to ship to me so we finally scraped it on the spot. Or so I was told by my cohort in Chicago.
Mine look alot better than that one ,well at least until they became what we call B-marts.

Looks to me like LTEX 1200 is scrawled on it. Maybe it is going to Larry's Truck and Electric. (?)
